Malcolm

Famous quotes containing the word malcolm:

    Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible. He is a kind of confidence man, preying on people’s vanity, ignorance, or loneliness, gaining their trust and betraying them without remorse.
    —Janet Malcolm (b. 1934)

    Fidelity to the subject’s thought and to his characteristic way of expressing himself is the sine qua non of journalistic quotation.
    —Janet Malcolm (b. 1934)
